Summary

Mr. Satan happy after Buu heals Bee

This episode starts off with Majin Buu and Mr. Satan looking up at Van Zant and Smitty. Van Zant fires a rocket towards Majin Buu, but Majin Buu is untouched and Mr. Satan is nowhere to be seen (apparently jumping out of the way). Suddenly Mr. Satan kicks Van Zant and his mate off the cliff, and discovers that Majin Buu's puppy is not dead. Majin Buu heals the dog, and the two celebrate.

Mr. Satan looking at the picture he took

At Kami's Lookout, Piccolo confronts Goten and Trunks on why they have been neglecting their training. Majin Buu rebuilds his house and shapes it like a dog, and the two have a relaxing bath, but Majin Buu almost drowns Mr. Satan not knowing he needs to breathe. After that, Mr. Satan ponders on things when he looks at the picture of him faking his triumph over Buu. After considering the fact that he made him good, he tears the picture in pieces, realizing he no longer needs it anymore.

Evil Buu appears

Mr. Satan then cooks dinner for Majin Buu, but Van Zant appears in the window. After some talking, Mr. Satan charges Van Zant, only to get shot by him. Majin Buu gets really angry and steam that Buu is unable to control begins to erupt from the holes in his head. He then tries to heal Mr. Satan. He succeeds but can not stop his anger. He then tells Mr. Satan to get far away from here and Mr. Satan flees with the puppy. In a giant puff of steam a new Majin Buu appears. He flies up to Van Zant, who tries to shoot this new Evil Buu, but it has no effect on him, and Van Zant is killed. Evil Buu approaches the good Majin Buu, and begins arguing with him as Mr. Satan watches in horror.

Quotes

"Now, tell me a little about this Bulma lady. I hope that she isn't a little too old now, is she? Well, as long as she's got enough spunk left, she'll do for me. After being trapped in that sword, I'll settle for just about anything. Know what I mean?"
— Old Kai
